A CRAZY LOVE - Episode 186
*MARKUS’s TEAM*
“Miss Nicole has been shot.” Markus heard through his bluetooth, his teeth clenching.
His team paused, knowing how much their boss cared for his dear little sister.
Markus stood still for a second, taking in all the losses they were incurring. Joel was seriously injured, Kizy was abducted and now Nicole was shot.
All three people whom he cared the most were already put in danger even before the actual battle could start.
“Victor. I am entrusting Nicole’s condition to you for now. I am stuck and can not retreat at the moment. Don’t break my trust. Leave the left side open. I will take care of it.” Markus said through bluetooth before stepping ahead, his team resuming their battle mode.
*VICTOR’s TEAM*
Victor’s mind had gone completely blank, unable to digest what or how he was supposed to take care of this situation.
All the flashbacks from Anna were back and it took everything from him to not sit down and pull his hairs till his scalp went numb from pain.
“Victor.” He heard Markus’s voice on his bluetooth.
By the time Markus ended speaking, Victor closed his eyes, processing the words, the trust and the job that Markus had entrusted on his shoulders.
And the moment he opened his eyes, it was back – his rage, his willpower to fight this till the end, his determination to ki|| every single bastard who was to lay even a single finger on their team.
“Cover fire.” Was the only thing he said before carelessly running towards Nicole without worrying about all the bullets that were raining his way.
The scene couldn’t be any more dramatic like that of a battlefield where the hero would cross an entire track under bullet showers and yet come out uninjured.
But yes this was happening, truly, because Markus’s team now knew what they were supposed to do.
They have had enough losses and if anything, they only had to win after this. That was what they had been taught since the day they joined Satan’s team.
Hence without letting Victor take another bullet, they were firing back at the enemies, not giving them a chance to $h00t another person.
Within seconds, Victor was kneeling beside Nicole, carrying her unconscious body princess style, his hands shaking a little though.
Because Nicole had lost a lot of blood, and secondly, her breathing was very abnormal, like that of a person breathing his last.
Without any delay, Victor ran back, away from the Professor’s palace, knowing there was more to Nicole’s injury than just a bullet shot.
While his team paused, waiting for further orders from Markus, which they received soon.
Markus was moving towards the left side of the palace, while Victor’s team was supposed to attack the left side as well, where both the teams would then join and attack altogether.
*KIZY*
Kizy was respectfully made to sit on a comfortable sofa in the middle of their base, surrounded by guards from all four sides.
“Sorry for the earlier attacks Miss Hazel, I hope we have not harmed you in any way.” One of the two men, who had abducted Kizy, came forward and asked politely.
But Kizy was in no mood to care about this chit chat. If anything, she was searching for ways to set herself free instead of paying any attention to all the drama which was being played in front of her.
“Then, I would take this as a no. Is there anything that we can do for you?” He asked again with the same level of respect.
“I feel nauseous and suffocated, can I get some fresh air and less crowd?” Kizy asked sharply, hoping at least this would shut the man up.
“For your nausea, we have Miss Sia, who has learnt a lot of medicines from the Imperial physician. As for suffocation, we have been ordered to not neglect your safety. So we can’t help you out much with this condition, Miss Hazel. Sorry.” The man said, his tone actually showing his regret.
Kizy once again ignored him, hoping either her team would arrive faster or at least she would have a way out to escape.
*JASON’s TEAM*
Meanwhile Jason, Rose and Harry along with their teams, successfully managed to land on the jungle route.
“We need to hurry.” Harry said, noticing it was already 6 minutes since he had hacked the security systems.
Jason nodded, moving ahead of the team while others followed. They had hardly moved for a minute or two when Jason paused in tracks, his expressions giving chills to the entire team.
“What happened?” Rose asked carefully, knowing something was definitely wrong.
“We are in the midst of a poisonous land.” Jason said, carefully watching all the trees, plants, grass surrounding him.
“What!!” Harry exclaimed, not knowing what else to say.
Everyone knew how the professor had been devoting his entire life to poisons, which could already explain the type of deathly path they had taken.
“Everyone cover your faces, especially nostrils right now. Poison fumes would be the easiest way to put our lives in danger. Secondly make sure you don’t touch anything directly with your bare skin. And lastly, let’s move out of this d@mn place quickly.” Jason ordered, putting on masks and helmets, covering themselves entirely.
‘This was why that psycho left this place bare for our entry without much guards. After all, nobody will be able to distinguish the mild smell of poisons among the normal herbs. And by the time someone understands, their body would have started corroding internally from poison fumes inhaled earlier. He can seriously cross all the levels of cruelty for achieving his goals. But not for long.” Jason thought in his mind, running towards the headquarters while others did the same.
*VICTOR*
“This is not good.” One of the doctors said after examining Nicole’s wound.
“Why? What’s wrong?” Victor asked, his voice cracking at the end.
“The bullet has pierced her uterine artery. Plus it seems to have injured her uterus to quite some length. We need to shift her real quick and remove that bullet.” One of the doctors said, already in the process of shifting her back towards the ship.
It hardly took Victor a moment to realize the gravity of the situation before he himself went ahead to help the doctors shift Nicole to the ship.
“Sir, you can not come inside.” One of the doctors said once they were inside the ship, ready to operate on Nicole.
“I…” Victor wanted to speak up when another doctor spoke up.
“You can stay if you want Sir. But watching someone you care about being incised by blade is not a scene you ever want to see.” Second doctor said politely, one of his hand carrying scalpel, signalling he was about to start the surgery.
Victor knew he couldn’t dare to see wh@??ver was to come next as he was very sensitive about everything which involved Nicole. But he knew it would be even more worse if he was to go outside and wait for the doctors to update him on Nicole’s condition.
“I will leave once the bullet is removed.” Victor said in a monotonous voice, toughening his heart for wh@??ver was to come next.
With that the doctors signalled each other before eventually starting the surgery.
*JASON’s TEAM*
“Is that the psycho’s palace?” Rose asked in a low voice to not alert anyone.
“Hmmm.” Jason simply replied with a hum, planning his next strategy.
“I have heard that the psycho lives on the topmost floor of this palace. Should I try checking the security there?” This time Harry asked.
“No. We will be searching for the base. As much as I know, he would have hidden Diamond at his base which would be the safest place in this palace. So we need to search for that.” Jason replied precisely, his intentions crystal clear.
He was going to rescue Diamond first, and then take care of the Professor.
Rose and Harry nodded, both of them agreeing with Jason’s plan.
Harry instantly took out his laptop, his strongest weapon, checking through the base’s location and its security system.
“They do have underground places, but I can not access them no matter what.” Harry said, his voice though plain, not hiding how much frustrated and disappointed he was in himself.
“Professor himself would have paid extra care towards those areas. You don’t have to feel sad, Harry. Professor’s hacking ski|| level is no joke, that’s no lie. So let’s just search for it ourselves.” Jason said, his statement making Harry’s mood much better.
With that, the team was once again back in high spirits, ready to break through professor’s palace and finish this battle for once and for all.
*ANDREW’s TEAM*
Andrew was slowly stepping ahead, defending and attacking quiet well. Afterall he had already faced one of the three black markets alone many times.
Thus even though he was attacking the professor for the very first time, he knew what all he was going to face, and was mentally prepared for the same.
“Left.” He said in a low voice before his teammate shot towards the same direction, taking down one more.
“Take shelter.” Andrew this time shouted himself after taking down another member from the enemy side.
And the very next second, a team of more than thirty men launched themselves at Andrew’s team, suddenly turning the whole situation upside down.
“f_ck!!” Andrew cursed at the sudden twist, but still remained focused for the next blows.
With one signal from him, there was thundering of bullets from their side, receiving the same in exchange from their enemies as well.
“Keep firing. We can not let them reach us.” Andrew ordered his team through the bluetooth.
And with that a battlefield was created at that very moment, with bullets being fired from both sides, men getting injured yet not backing down, and instead ferociously getting back on their feet, stronger and braver.
This scene, which would be forever imprinted in their minds, no matter wh@??ver battles they were to fight in future.
*PROFESSOR*
“Andrew has entered from the right side of the palace. Satan cleared the front soldiers and joined hands with their left team, both of them entering together from the left side now.” Lieutenant from the Professor’s side informed him of the latest moves.
“What happened to his sister?” Professor asked monotonously.
“She was shot. Black dragon from the Black command rescued her and took her back to their ship.” Lieutenant replied.
“Not bad.” Professor said while nodding his head, his emotions excellently hidden.
“Any news-” The professor was still asking when the monitor in front of him beeped.
“Someone has hacked through the defences. Good. This is what I was waiting for. Finally my good friend, Black thunder has arrived. Though he, as always, is using his mind games, which once again would fail against me.” Professor said confidently as a merciless smile bloomed on his face.
“Check for CCTVs near the areas opening from the jungle on both the right and left side. They have successfully dodged oir stupid men on both gates. Which means they chose their own death, my lovely poison jungle as their attacking route.” The Professor ordered carelessly.
“Yes Professor.” One of the high ranking soldiers kneeled and left in a hurry.
“Send another team to tighten the security around Hazel. I want zero mistakes. No compromise over her security.” Professor said in a chilled voice, showing how much Kizy’s security mattered to him.
“Yes Professor.” The lieutenant replied before signalling another high ranking soldier who was supposed to stay here and defend the Professor.
The soldier instantly left with a team of men, rushing towards Kizy’s location.
“Inform him now. My ace card.” The professor said before laughing like a maniac, terrorising his own men to the core.
